[QUOTE="yakpoo, post: 4633784, member: 18157"]I dabble with day-trading in the mornings and one of my news sources had an NGC ad showing an NGS-graded MS-62 1893-S Morgan Dollar (5743697-001). Initially, I didn't doubt the authenticity of the coin. I just wanted to see a better picture of this valuable coin, so I used the NGC lookup tool...

If not, just manually insert the Cert#. I collect/hoard Morgan dollars, but haven't studied them in detail (yet). However, the one characteristic I always expect to see is (what I call) the "Elvis Lip" (upper lip curling down...like this HA example [B]for comparison[/B]): [IMG]https://dyn1.heritagestatic.com/lf?set=path%5B6%2F8%2F1%2F6%2F6816169%5D%2Csizedata%5B850x600%5D&call=url%5Bfile%3Aproduct.chain%5D[/IMG] Instead of the upper lip curving downward, the NGC coin has an upper lip that curls up! Please follow the NGC link (above) to see the coin in question. So...the question is...is the coin in the NGC link "Real"...or a fake?
